Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Summer, 1994 /f^^sMvU- w$Wm&w&:mm^mmmB ifi Welcome This evening the Boston Symphony Orchestra celebrates at one time both the reali- zation of a dream and the well-deserved recognition of two musicians who discovered their professional lives at Tanglewood and became mentors and models for thousands of young artists who over the decades since have made the world of music their own. With the opening of Seiji Ozawa Hall and the new Leonard Bernstein Campus, head- quarters of the Tanglewood Music Center, the decades before us hold promise of excit- ing possibilities. The need for these new facilities became manifest more than ten years ago, as a con- sequence of the irreversible erosion in the condition of the old Theatre-Concert Hall. Their creation became possible on December 31, 1986, with the agreement of Mr. and Mrs. Mason Harding to sell to the Boston Symphony the Highwood estate. Leader- ship givers Norio Ohga, Jane and Jack Fitzpatrick, the Kresge Foundation, Sony Corporation of America, Liz and George Krupp,< and the Florence Gould Foundation were joined by hundreds of other generous donors whose names are listed in the com- memorative book we have published today, entitled "Seiji Ozawa Hall: A Room for Music. " Mr. Ohga, a leading figure in the business world as GEO of Sony Corpora- tion, is also a deeply committed musician. Given the privilege of naming the new hall, he chose to name it for his countryman Seiji Ozawa as the culmination of Mr. Ozawa's 20th Anniversary Year as Music Director of the BSO and in tribute to his important influence on music throughout the world in his thirty-four-year association with the Tanglewood Music Center. Architect William Rawn Associates, acoustician Lawrence Kirkegaard, and an out- standing team of consultants and artisans have given us a hall of great beauty, simplic- ity, and versatility. Seiji Ozawa Hall will be the site of orchestra and choral concerts,\ chamber music performances, solo recitals, and many other activities including record- ings. With scheduling foresight, our design and building committees helped to make it possible for construction to be accomplished on time and within the approved budget. The new campus and ancillary structures follow a thoughtful master plan conceived by William Porter and Catherine Verhulst of the firm of Carr, Lynch, Hack and Sandell. Their goal, and ours, was to provide for the future of Tanglewood without losing the magical atmosphere that has meant so much to generations of musicians and music lovers,. We hope you will agree that that goal has been achieved. With deep gratitude we direct your attention to the listings in "A Room for Music" of donors, designers, and workers who have collaborated so successfully on the reali- zation of Seiji Ozawa Hall. Tonight's concert is the culmination of a week of rehearsals and special events honoring all of these participants. NEC, the longtime and generous sponsor of the BSO's concert tours, has underwritten this special opening week for the 1994 Tanglewood season. We offer thanks as well to all of the performing artists who are contributing their services for this concert, to John Williams—another star in the Tanglewood firma- ment—for creating his new cello concerto for this event, and to all those whose pres- ence in the audience signifies their devotion to the continual renewal of/the Tangle- wood ideal. » /e<rvic- George H.

  • Richard Strauss's Ariadne Auf Naxos
    Richard Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos - A survey of the major recordings by Ralph Moore Ariadne auf Naxos is less frequently encountered on stage than Der Rosenkavalier or Salome, but it is something of favourite among those who fancy themselves connoisseurs, insofar as its plot revolves around a conceit typical of Hofmannsthal’s libretti, whereby two worlds clash: the merits of populist entertainment, personified by characters from the burlesque Commedia dell’arte tradition enacting Viennese operetta, are uneasily juxtaposed with the claims of high art to elevate and refine the observer as embodied in the opera seria to be performed by another company of singers, its plot derived from classical myth. The tale of Ariadne’s desertion by Theseus is performed in the second half of the evening and is in effect an opera within an opera. The fun starts when the major-domo conveys the instructions from “the richest man in Vienna” that in order to save time and avoid delaying the fireworks, both entertainments must be performed simultaneously. Both genres are parodied and a further contrast is made between Zerbinetta’s pragmatic attitude towards love and life and Ariadne’s morbid, death-oriented idealism – “Todgeweihtes Herz!”, Tristan und Isolde-style. Strauss’ scoring is interesting and innovative; the orchestra numbers only forty or so players: strings and brass are reduced to chamber-music scale and the orchestration heavily weighted towards woodwind and percussion, with the result that it is far less grand and Romantic in scale than is usual in Strauss and a peculiarly spare ad spiky mood frequently prevails.

  • Lineage Curated by Julia Bullock Soundbox
    LINEAGE CURATED BY JULIA BULLOCK SOUNDBOX 1 julia bullock on lineage “I’ve found that musicians often share a lot about the various influences in their lives— whether they be historical, political, philosophical, personal, or based on other mediums of art. They let diverse influences not only impact their work, but find ways to let them register explicitly. It’s like musicians are hyper conscious of their lineage—they honor it and value it. So, as I continue to follow along the path and legacy of artists that came before me, lineage has become increasingly important—it’s a part of knowing from where I originated and letting that inform where I envision myself going. The musicians on this SoundBox program could not make music all together in one place, or even at one time, but the very nature of this program—which links material that spans across almost 900 years—captures an audio and visual snapshot of how lineage can inform, influence, impact, and express itself in a musical context.” 2 Esa-Pekka Salonen SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY MUSIC DIRECTOR San Francisco Symphony Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen has, through his many high-profile conducting roles and work as a leading composer, shaped a unique vision for the present and future of the contemporary symphony orchestra.

Songfest 2005 is supported, in part, by grants from the Aaron Copland Fund for Music and the Virgil Thomson Foundation. Songfest photography courtesy of Luisa Gulley. Songfest is a 501(c)3 corporation. All donations are 100% tax-deductible to the full extent permitted by law. Dear Friends, It is a great honor and joy for me to present Songfest 2005 at Pepperdine University once again this summer. In our third year of residence at this beautiful ocean-side Malibu campus, Songfest has grown to encompass an ever-widening circle of inspiration and achievement. Always focusing on the special relationship between singer and pianist, we have moved on from our unique emphasis on recognized masterworks of art song to exploring the varied and rich American Song. We are once again privileged to have John Harbison with us this summer. He has generously donated a commission to Songfest – Vocalism – to be premiered on the June 19 concert. Our singers and pianists will be previewing his new song cycle on poems by Milosz. Each time I read these beautiful poems, I am reminded why we love this music and how our lives are enriched. What an honor and unique opportunity this is for Songfest.
